TOOK THE RIFLE OUT TO THE RANGE YESTERDAY. IT WAS A 100 DEGREE DAY. I FIRED OFF 20 SHOTS. THE RIFLE DID GREAT, BUT THE BARREL GOT SO HOT THAT YOU COULD NOT TOUCH IT. I LET IT SET WHILE A SHOT ANOTHER RIFLE. I ONCE AGAIN SHOT 20 MORE ROUNDS FROM THE DOUBLESTAR. ONCE AGAIN , EVEN A HOTTER BARREL AND ALSO AROUND THE FROM GRIP WAS VERY HOT. THE RIFLE FIRED WELL, BUT IS THIS NORMAL FOR THE RIFLE TO GET THIS HOT ??? I STILL ENJOYED SHOOTING IT.

Quick breakdown on the rifle facts...
Barrel is 16" heavy, chromed, 1:7 twist.
The bolt carrier group is an enhanced AR-15 style. Staking is excellent.
Take down pins are solid and fit perfect.
Stock is a 4 position of commercial dimensions.
Safety is not ambidextrous.
Overall, as other reviews have said, fit and finish is excellent.
The carbine I received is exactly as described and of the expected quality, for the price / manufacture.
One thing unexpected from the picture, the rifle is black. I expected greenish from the buds reference photo.
Rifle came with a 4 sided gas block, quality 30rd magazine and an average user manual.
Put wolf, rem, and LC ammo through it in PMags, Thermo-molds, and STANAG mags with no notable issues.
This is a quality weapon at a fair price.
Buds shipped quickly to a known FFL and I was out the door in under 20 min.

I must admit, I only ordered this Doublestar because I could not find a Colt or a Rock River Arms AR. I live in Colorado, so time was of the essence. Nothing else was for sale anywhere (for less than $2K) so I went with Doublestar.
The rifle comes in a cardboard box with one 30 round mag. It does not come with any optics, as is shown in the picture. For $1300, I wish it would have had basic iron sights. It has a four rail block up front and and rail in the back, so you can mount your own sights.
I have never owned my own AR15 before, but this Doublestar brand seams to be a quality product. Everything seams to work. Fit and finish is good. The rifle comes ready to customize. Note: this rifle has commercial sized buffer tube, not milspec. If you are changing out the stock, you will need to know that.
Overall, I am pleased with this brand and the rifle itself. I've taken it apart and cleaned/lubed it. I have not shot it, so I can't comment on how it shoots. The ammo shortage has made 223/556 worth their weight in gold. I have ordered from Buds before and plan to do so again in the future. I am very satisfied at this point.
